Be careful about the Thursday "event". Temperature forecast is above freezing. So I'm not sure if it'll come down as rain. :( (I know, I'm here in VT and really hope it won't rain, but for anyone who's still planning, let's be realistic)

Depends on where you are. If you take elevation into account then it's snow. Could rain in the valleys. Almost all the forecasts I've seen are calling for a few inches of snow Wed night into Thursday with highs near freezing. And long range is saying snow on Saturday, the 22nd.

It's actually the wind I'm worried about. In any case I'm going and I consider the warmer temps to be a good thing, esp if it's a bit windy. Just worried about the wind shutting things down. Guess we'll see.

Scotty, did you get a new phone with smaller letter buttons or something? Your recent posts are even harder to read than normal :lol:.

I want to know what lottery he won. He went from claiming he didnt have enough money to drive to the mountains, to skiing Stowe every other weekend. Scotty's a baller now.

I was wondering the same thing. Ever since he changed his name he's been rolling in the Benjis

That's what I thought, too. But I've been calling for reservations, and South Vermont seems to be pretty much booked. I can't make sense of it.
